The Dolphin House is an oceanfront Mendocino home perched on the edge of the earth, just steps from the wild Pacific Ocean. Nearly every room in the house has a spectacular ocean view. The house was built in the 1960s in the popular organic, handcrafted style to resonate with its surroundings. The interior has been updated recently in that style, adding modern conveniences.

The spacious oceanfront grounds invite strolls to view the lovely cove to the south, the wild ocean to the west, and the Pt. Cabrillo light station to the north. Private, quiet, and well equipped, you won’t want to leave, but if you choose to get out and hike, bike, dine, shop, or look at art, Mendocino village and seven state parks and preserves are just a few minutes away.

Dolphin House can accommodate up to four adults. Children under 16 years of age are not allowed due to the very close proximity of the Pacific Ocean.
